Been gone from the boards for a while, glad to see things are still going strong. Haven't really been following the SSC world to much, but wouldn't ya know it, the good old Bunn MCP looks like it's starting to kick the bucket. Re-calibrated it numerous times to no avail, now it seems that IT has decided how many ounces to dispense, slider be damned. My first MCP lasted just under two years and this one is the warranty replacement. Now this one has been going strong daily for about five years now.

Anyone have any quick tricks to get it working again? Should I send it in for service? Or should I get the latest and greatest out there? What is the latest and greatest out there these days?

I replaced my MCP with the MCU. More versatile (K-cups, grounds, pods) and never gives the wrong amount because it puts out what you put in it.

I'd recommend getting in touch with Amanda@Bunn, who's always very helpful (for example, see the quote below from a recent thread):

Yes, the MC and MCU are worth checking out! Outside of podland, people seem to like CBTL as well.
